1Bhakilishitu ajangunji, nne punaliji na mmanganya nangammeleketelanga mbuti bhandu bha mmbumu. Ikabheje mbuti bhandu bha pashilambolyo, malinga ashinambombe nndamo ja shi Kilishitu.
2Nashinkumpanganga mabhele, nngabha shalya shanonopa, pabha nkashilepelenje. Nkali nnaino nkashikombolanga.
3Numbe mmanganyanji launo nnakagulilanga indu ya pa shilambolyo. Pabha kungwenunji lushipagwa lupimililo na mpwai, bhuli mmanganya nngabha malinga bhandunji bha pa shilambolyo? Nnatamangana kwa kagulila nkubho gwa bhandunji bha pashilambolyo.
4Mundu jumo munkumbi gwenunji pabheleketa kuti nne jwa a Pauli na juna kuti nne jwa a Apolo, bhuli, yeneyo ikalangula kuti nnatamangana malinga bhandu bha pa shilambolyo?
5A Apolo ni agani? Na a Pauli ni agani? Uwe bhatumishipe twampeleshelenje mmanganya ngulupai. Kila mundu munkumbi gwetu anatenda malinga shapegwilwe na Bhakulungwa.
6Nne nashinkupanda mmbeju, a Apolo gubhajitilile mashi, ikabheje bhameshiye mmbeju a Nnungu.
7Kwa nneyo, jwa mmbone nngabha apandile mmbeju jula eu ajitilile mashi, ikabhe bha mmbone a Nnungu bhameshiye mmbeju.
8Apandile jula eu ajitilile mashi bhowe bhanalingananga, ikabheje kila mundu shaposhele upo yakwe kwa liengo lyatendile.
9Pabha uwe na mmanganyanji, tubhowe tubhakamula liengo lya a Nnungu pamo, na mmanganya ni malinga nngunda gwabho na nyumba jabho.
10Kwa jangutilwa na nema jimbegwilwe na a Nnungu, malinga nkushenga akwete lunda, aolile nshingi gwa nyumba na mundu juna gwaishe shenga pa ntundu jakwe. Ikabheje kila mundu alolesheye shakuti shenga panani jakwe.
11Jwakwa mundu juna shaolele maimbo ga shenga, paolelwe pala, yani a Yeshu Kilishitu.
12Ibhaga mundu shaashenje panani jakwe, kwa shaabhu eu maganga ga ela eu maganga ga bhei jikuklungwa, na juna shaashenjele nkali mikongo eu maamba eu manyai.
13Ikabheje, lyubha lya ukumu liengo lya kila mundu shilibhoneshe mobha gushibhaishe a Kilishitu. Pabha, lyene lyubhalyo a Nnungu shibhapime kushimilika kwa kila liengo.
14Monaga shashenjile mundu shibhonekaga kulonjeya, bhai shaposhele upo.
15Ikabheje shashenjile mundu shitinikaga, bhai, akapegwa upo, ikabheje nnyene shatapulwe mbuti akolobhweshe pa moto.
16Bhuli, nkakwimanyanga kuti mmanganya ni likanisha, na kuti Mbumu jwa a Nnungu anatama mmunda jenunji?
17Bhai, mundu aangabhanyaga likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, a Nnungu shibhanng'angabhanye jwene mundujo, pabha likanisha lya a Nnungu, ni lya Ukonjelo na lyene likanisha lya a Nnungulyo, ni mmanganyanji.
18Nnaitembanje! Mundu jojowe munkumbi gwenunji aiganishiyaga kuti ashikola lunda malinga lwa pa shilambolyo, mbaya aiputuye nkupinga akole lunda lwa kweli.
19Pabha lunda lwa pa shilambolyo pano ni ungumba kwa a Nnungu. Na Majandiko ga Ukonjelo gakuti, “A Nnungu bhanakwaakamulanga bhakwetenje lunda, nkupenya kwabhonji.”
20Kabhili Majandiko gakuti, “Bhakulungwa bhamumanyi ng'aniyo ya bhakwetenje lunda kuti ikapwaa.”
21Bhai mundu anaipunile bhandu. Pabha indu yowe yenunji.
22Ibhaga a Pauli, eu a Apolo, eu a Kepa, eu shilambolyo, eu gumi na kuwa, eu indu ipali, nnaino na ikwiya, yowe ni yenunji,
23ikabheje mmanganya ni bha a Kilishitu na bhalabho a Kilishitu ni bha a Nnungu.
